Cal Smart Tex-Mex Turkey Chili
with Lime Crema
Thick, hearty, spicy chili gets a blast of cool freshness from a Greek-yogurt-based lime crema. Cheddar cheese is the perfect topping. If you like it melted, just wait a couple of minutes after topping your bowls with cheese before adding the crema and serving.

Cooking Steps
- Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
- Core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch pieces.
- Core, then finely chop jalapeño. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping jalapeños.)
- Using a strainer, drain and rinse beans.
- Heat a large pot over medium-high.
- When the pot is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then peppers, mirepoix and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) jalapeños. (TIP: Use less if you prefer a milder chili. Use more if you prefer a spicy chili!)
- Cook for 5-6 min, stirring occasionally, until veggies are tender-crisp.
- Add turkey to the pot with the veggies.
- Cook for 4-5 min, breaking up turkey into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
- Add garlic puree and Mexican Seasoning. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until fragrant.
- To the pot with turkey, add crushed tomatoes, half the black beans (use all for 4 portions) and 1 cup (2 cup) water. Stir to combine, then bring to a boil over high. (TIP: Reserve remaining beans for another use.)
- Once boiling, reduce heat to medium.
- Simmer for 10-12 min, stirring occasionally, until chili thickens slightly. (TIP: If you have time, keep it simmering on the stove for longer – chili gets better the longer it cooks.)
- Meanwhile, thinly slice green onions.
- Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.
- In a small bowl, combine Greek yogurt, lime zest, lime juice and half the green onions.
- When chili is done, add veggies.
- Cook for 2-3 min, stirring often, until warmed through.
- Divide chili between bowls.
- Top with cheese.
- Dollop lime crema over top, then sprinkle over remaining green onions.
- Squeeze a lime wedge over top.
